  • 3 1/2 envelopes Unflavored Gelatin
  • 1/2 cup Cold John AP Conoley Bourbon
  • 1/2 cup Cold Water
  • 2 cups Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Light Corn Syrup
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 2 Large Egg Whites
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Oil a 9x13 baking pan and sprinkle powdered sugar on bottom to coat.
  • Pour ½ cup of cold water into electric mixer bowl. Add in packages of gelatin.
  • Use a whisk attachment and gently mix.
  • While that sits, add sugar, bourbon, syrup and salt to a medium pot. Heat on low and whisk until sugar dissolves.

  • Add egg whites and vanilla to electric mixer and mix until combined.
  • Pour mixture into 9x13 pan.
  • Dust powdered sugar on top and let set for 3-5 hours, until firm.
  • Once firm, turn pan upside down and cut into desired shape.
  • Make s’more as desired.
  • Enjoy!
